ADRIAN — The Weber Retreat and Conference Center will host Sister Ilia Delio and her presentation Hope in a Time of Crisis: Evolution and Religion, on Saturday, February 21st.
Sister Delio’s hybrid presentation, held as an interactive Zoom event and an in-person event, will be from 9:00 a.m. to noon.
In her talk, Sister Ilia speaks of the vision of theologian Teilhard de Chardin and claims that the current fracturing of the world through violence and division, and the current age of global connectivity, are two faces of the same evolutionary moment.
Sister Ilia holds the Josephine C. Connelly Chair in Christian Theology at Villanova University outside of Philadelphia.
She focuses her research and writing on Systematic-Constructive theology, particularly in the integration of science, religion, and culture.
The cost is $45, including lunch for in-person participants.
Registration is required.
